Regional vulnerability to lipoxidative damage and inflammation in normal human brain aging.
Experimental Gerontology 2018 October 2
Oxidative damage and inflammation coexist in healthy human brain aging. The present study analyzes levels of protein adduction by lipid peroxidation (LP) end-products neuroketal (NKT) and malondialdehyde (MDA), as markers of protein oxidative damage, cycloxygenase-2 (COX-2) levels, as a marker of inflammation, and cytochrome P450 2J2 (CYP2J2), responsible of generation of neuroprotective products, in twelve brain regions in normal middle-aged individuals (MA) and old-aged (OA) individuals. In addition, levels of these markers were evaluated as a function of age as a continuous variable and correction for multiple comparisons. Selection of regions was based on their different vulnerability to prevalent neurodegenerative diseases in aging. Our findings show region-dependent LP end-products, COX-2 and CYP2J2 changes in the aging human brain. However, no clear relationship can be established between NKT, MDA, COX-2 and CYP2J2 levels, and regional vulnerability to neurodegeneration in old age.
